# multiplatform

Just saw this in the Android Developers YouTube channel. Isn't this deprecated? Not even that, it should be an error now. Or did I miss the un-deprecation somehow?

Having jvm("java8") on its own seems to work OK, but I do get an error trying to have multiple targets of the same type 🤔

[Edoardo Luppi]

Yup it's expected AFAIU. It's been deprecated a year ago, so it's surprising to see it in a video published two days ago.

[Colton Idle]

oof. that's dissapointing indeed since this is specifically the kmp video, right?

[Edoardo Luppi]

Yup, that's the video IIRC

@Ben Trengrove [G] can you confirm if it is indeed deprecated?

Apologies, it turns out it is deprecated. Dustin was just using it to try and explain the difference between targets and platforms, he does say it is not recommended

[Edoardo Luppi]

No problem. To be honest I would prefer it NOT to be deprecated, but here we are.

Wonder if the video desc can be updated with the alternative. just bad timing since io just happened. lol
